Earth/Electric build

Ever get one of those ideas in your head that just won't go away? Well that's what happened here. I was looking at a show and they mentioned ground fault circuit. Ground fault stuck in my brain. So I was wondering if it would be possible to combine earth and electric to make a decent build. It can be anything really, dps, tank, support. I just really would like to try a char with those powers.

    Its not that you can't viably mix them, but that Elec alone is stronger overall and tends to make something like Earth redundant.

    Just for the hell of it, though, here's an Elec + Earth Support:

    (Unnamed Build) - Freeform
    v2.3.2-28

    Super Stats
    Level 6: Presence (Primary)
    Level 10: Constitution (Secondary)
    Level 15: Endurance (Secondary)

    Talents
    Level 1: The Hero (Str: 8, Dex: 8, Con: 8, Int: 8, Ego: 8, Pre: 8, Rec: 6, End: 6)
    Level 6: Shrug It Off (Con: 5, Pre: 5)
    Level 9: Boundless Reserves (Con: 5, End: 5)
    Level 12: Prodigy (Pre: 5, End: 5)
    Level 15: Acrobat (Dex: 5, Con: 5)
    Level 18: Finesse (Dex: 5, Pre: 5)
    Level 21: Accurate (Dex: 5, End: 5)

    Powers
    Level 1: Electric Bolt
    Level 1: Electrical Current (Rank 2, Bad Wiring)
    Level 6: Ionic Reverberation
    Level 8: Medical Nanites (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 11: Compassion
    Level 14: Ball Lightning (Triplicity, Supercharged)
    Level 17: Arcane Vitality (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 20: Electrocute (Superconductor)
    Level 23: Fissure (Reconstruct)
    Level 26: Electrical Siphon (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 29: Lightning Arc (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 32: Redemption (Rank 2, Salvation)
    Level 35: Thundering Return
    Level 38: Stone Shroud (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Adv. Points: 35/36

    Travel Powers
    Level 6:
    Level 35:

    Specializations
    Presence: Repurpose (3/3)
    Presence: Selfless Ally (2/2)
    Presence: Moment of Glory (3/3)
    Presence: Force of Will (2/2)
    Sentinel: Caregiver (3/3)
    Sentinel: Sentinel Aura (3/3)
    Sentinel: Moment of Need (2/3)
    Sentinel: Wither (2/2)
    Guardian: Fortified Gear (3/3)
    Guardian: Ruthless (2/2)
    Guardian: Find the Mark (2/3)
    Guardian: The Best Defense (3/3)
    Mastery: Sentinel Mastery (1/1)

    Opens w/ Electrocute and Ball Lit, then spams Elec Current (mainly for the stun) and uses Ball Lit and Fissure on cd. If you want more ST dps (for w/e reason as a Support) you can use LArc instead of Current. Current and Electrocute can proc Sentinel Mastery and Wither. Sentinel Mastery & Aura, Elec Siphon, Fissure's HoT, Med Nanite's aura, and Arcane Vit all can help you heal as needed. Is prob best played closer up w/ other allies. Gears mostly for Pres, w/ some Con and End/Rec.

    Appreciate that Flow, I'll give it a try. I already have an electric dps so this will be a nice change of pace.
